Dubai, UAE – In a groundbreaking partnership, VIVE and e&, formerly known as Etisalat Group, have unveiled the e& universe powered by VIVERSE technology at GITEX 2023 in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. This immersive experience represents a significant leap forward in customer engagement, offering enhanced 3D graphics, realistic lighting, and fluid movements across its various zones.
